Genesis 30:16 in Context — Genesis 30
14 E foi Rúben em tempo da colheita dos trigos, e achou mandrágoras no campo, e trouxe-as a sua mãe Lia; e disse Raquel a Lia: Rogo-te que me dês das mandrágoras de teu filho.
15 E ela respondeu: É pouco que tenhas tomado meu marido, mas também levarás as mandrágoras de meu filho? E disse Raquel: Ele, pois, dormirá contigo esta noite pelas mandrágoras de teu filho.
16 E quando Jacó voltava do campo à tarde, Lia saiu ao encontro dele, e lhe disse: Deitarás comigo, porque em verdade te aluguei em troca das mandrágoras de meu filho. E dormiu com ela naquela noite.
17 E ouviu Deus a Lia; e concebeu, e deu à luz a Jacó o quinto filho.
18 E disse Lia: Deus me deu minha recompensa, porque dei minha serva a meu marido; por isso chamou seu nome Issacar.
